Specials Pz Abteilungen

Post by tigre »

Hello to all, greetings from Argentina.

I'm interested specially in those specials Pz Abteilungen acting under the framework of the XXXXVII Pz K's Pz divisions.

As per the 17 Pz D: on Jun 15 1941 the Pz Lehr Abt from the Pz School at WUNSDORF was attached to the Pz R 39 and became its 3d Abteilung.

As per the 18 Pz D: the Tauch Pz Abteilungen under the Pz R 18 and the Pz Abt (F) 100, attached from 22 jun to 5 Nov 1941.

Could someone help me with reports, stories or KTB with regards to the profit rendered for those Abteilungen during its tour of duty in Operation Barbarossa?. TIA. Tigre.

Hello to all :D; a little query.......................................

The Pz. Abt. (F) 102 in Barbarroja.

Organization.

The Pz. Abt. (F) 102 was created on June 20, 1941 with K.St.N. 1176 dated May 30, 1941 composed of two heavy companies to be employed as Heerestruppe (at the army level). The material and personnel came from the 7. (schwere) Kompanie of the Panzer-Regiment 201 and the 7. (schwere) Kompanie of the Panzer-Regiment 202, belonging to the Panzer-Brigade 100.

By June 20, 1941, the Unit was ready for action and was deployed to the Eastern Front. The Abteilung reached the front on June 23, 1941 subordinated to the 17. AOK and was assigned to the 24th ID on June 24, 1941.
